Both individuals exhibited macrocephaly, delayed dentition, and constipation, together with a subnormal T4\/triiodothyronine (T3) ratio, low reverse T3 levels, and mild anemia.

In contrast, L274P mutant TR\u03b11 was transcriptionally inert, exerting significant dominant negative activity, only overcome with 10\u2009\u03bcM of T3. Mirroring this, normal expression of KLF9, a TH-responsive target gene, was achieved in A263V mutation-containing peripheral blood mononuclear cells following 1\u2009\u03bcM of T3 exposure, but with markedly reduced expression levels in L274P mutation-containing peripheral blood mononuclear cells, even with 10\u2009\u03bcM of T3. Following T4 therapy, growth, body composition, dyspraxia, and constipation improved in P1, whereas growth retardation and constipation in P2 were unchanged. Neither A263V nor L274P mutations exhibited gain or loss of function in the TR\u03b12 background, and no additional phenotype attributable to this was discerned.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This study correlates a milder clinical phenotype and favorable response to T4 therapy in a RTH\u03b1 patient (P1) with heterozygosity for mutant TR\u03b11 exhibiting partial, T3-reversible, loss of function.
